Privacy Policy

Last Updated: October 10, 2026

Introduction

WalkMeter ("the App") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what information the App uses and how it is handled. No account is required.

Information We Collect

The App does not send your walks or notes to the developer. Camera and motion data used for measurement are processed on your device.

Camera Usage

This App requires camera access to measure walking distance using ARKit technology.

  • The camera is used solely for distance measurement
  • Camera footage is not recorded or saved
  • Camera footage is not transmitted to external servers
  • Camera footage is used for real-time measurement processing

Motion and Step Counting

WalkMeter 2.0 uses Motion & Fitness access to count steps. During a walk, it estimates steps from device movement. At the end, it checks the system step count for the same interval. Distance and time still work if you do not allow motion access.

You can change camera and motion permissions in your device's Settings. Camera access is needed to measure distance. The App does not use GPS location or the Health database.

Data Storage and Deletion

Saved measurement dates, walking distance, duration, step counts, estimate indicators, and notes are stored on your device. Records saved in earlier versions also remain on your device. Display units and onboarding completion are stored locally as app settings.

  • The App does not upload these records or settings to the developer or third parties
  • You can delete saved walks from History
  • Deleting the app removes its app data from your device
  • iCloud or computer backups of your device may include app data. Retention and deletion of existing backups are managed separately in your device or backup settings

Third-Party Services

The App contains no advertising, tracking, or third-party analytics SDKs. If you open this page or an external support link in your browser, the privacy policy of that website applies.

Diagnostic Logs

The App may write sensor availability, tracking state, errors, step-query status, and step totals to the device's system log for troubleshooting. Camera images, notes, and walking routes are not saved in that log. Purchase, diagnostic, and usage information handled by Apple through its operating system or the App Store is subject to Apple's settings and privacy policy.

Children's Privacy

This App does not intentionally collect personal information from children under 13 years of age.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated as needed. Any significant changes will be notified on this page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Distance is not measured accurately

Please check the following:

  • Use in a well-lit area
  • Keep the rear camera uncovered and hold the device as steadily as possible
  • Avoid featureless walls or floors
  • Wait until tracking is ready, then tap Start

Q: Why do I need to allow camera access?

This App uses ARKit technology to measure walking distance. The camera is needed to recognize the surrounding environment and calculate device movement. Camera footage is not recorded or saved.

Q: Why can the final step count differ from the live count?

Live steps in WalkMeter 2.0 are estimated from device movement. At the end, the app checks the system step count for the same interval for up to three seconds, which may change the count. If the system count is unavailable, a complete motion estimate is kept and labeled; otherwise steps show a dash. Very slow steps, shuffling, and hand movement can cause missed or extra steps.

Q: Is my data backed up?

Measurement data is stored on your device. If iCloud backup is enabled, app data may be included in the backup.
